Three-chambered ant

The three-chambered ant is a common folk name, the scientific name is Paederus fuscipes CURTIS,
 1826, belonging to the family Staphilinidae (the Penguin family), the order Coleoptera.

This insect has a slender body, as long as a grain of rice (1 - 1.2 cm long, 2 - 3 mm wide), has two colors red and black, 
looks like an ant.
 Therefore, people often call it with many different names such as wild ants, needle ants, cross ants, rice ants, double chin, 
caged ants, 
curved ants...

This type of ant does not actively attack, sting or bite people, but because the body fluids of the bugs contain pederin, 
when they crawl on people, when they are caught, they have a self-defense reflex to bite or secrete pederin.

The three-compartment ant is a dangerous insect that contains Pederin toxin (C24H43O9N) in the body, 
which is 12-15 times more toxic than cobra venom.

Although the venom of the three-cavity ant is very toxic, due to the small amount of contact and only on the skin, 
it is not enough to cause death like snake venom. This substance mainly causes skin burns, easily confused with lesions in shingles, 
shingles.

but it takes 6-8 hours to feel the burning sensation and after about 12-24 hours, there will be blisters, 
after 3 days will scabs and after 5-7 days will heal but still have bruises.

Where do three-cavity ants usually live?

In the past, three-chambered ants often concentrated on living in fields, especially around stubble, lawns, 
gardens, landfills, and construction sites... However, in recent years, the speed has increased.
 Rapid urbanization along with the widespread use of pesticides by farmers have made the ecosystem unbalanced. 
The natural enemies are almost destroyed, so that the three-chambered ants can fly and appear in other places such as houses,
 dormitories, apartment buildings, schools, dormitories, garbage dumps...

During the rainy seasons, 
these ants will move to drier places to live. 
After rainy days, flooding the fields or ponds, at night, the three-chambered ants will follow the lights to fly into the house. 
They can perch on the human body, on clothing, blankets, bedding or other household items.

Three-compartment ants are insects whose colors are alternating black and yellow-orange cavities, 
they have a slender and long body like a grain of rice (about 0.7-1 cm in length, about 2- 5 mm in width).
 The three-cavity ant has three pairs of spiked legs, the abdomen is divided into segments, and the shiny pointed tail.
 A black head, above the head there are 2 antennae divided and extended forward.

In addition, they also have 2 pairs of wings in which a pair of long thin transparent wings are neatly folded and hidden just below the short hard wings.
 When they fly, the wings are spread, moreover, their wings are very strong, so the three-cavity ants often fly very fast.

The three-chambered ants often thrive in the rainy season and when the weather is high humidity. 
Their main food is insects that damage farmers' crops. When the rice field appears brown planthoppers or leaf rollers, 
they come and burrow into the worm's nest to eat each one. It is for this reason that in the past,

The places where ants are likely to fly in from the outside, 
to limit and prevent ants from entering the house, 
you can use a light trap (white or purple light) at the window or door in the evening. 
Underneath put a basin of water or catch it with a curtain.
